Press & media
For journalists, podcast hosts, event organizers, and anyone who wants to cite or feature animalcollar.ai. Everything you need is below.
One-line summary
animalcollar.ai is the independent publication of record for AI pet technology — collars, apps, startups, and the science behind them.
Founding
Launched May 2026 as a media-first take on the AI pet collar category, ahead of an estimated 18-month commercial inflection driven by PettiChat and the next wave of LLM-on-collar products.
Areas of expertise
- AI pet collars (Petpuls, PettiChat, FluentPet, Sentra, and emerging products)
- Pet translation technology (acoustic classification + LLM caption layers)
- Smart pet health monitoring
- The pet tech industry — funding, hiring, M&A
For journalists
We're happy to be quoted on the AI pet tech category and adjacent topics. We respond to interview requests within 48 hours.
Reach editor@animalcollar.ai with subject line "Press —" and your publication / deadline.
For podcasters
We accept podcast bookings selectively — focus on what we cover (AI pet tech, consumer hardware analysis, media-business strategy). Same email, subject line "Podcast —".
For event organizers
We don't take paid speaking slots from companies we cover (conflict of interest). We do speak at events with mixed audiences — pet industry conferences, consumer tech events, media-business conferences. Same email, subject line "Event —".
For analysts
We're happy to share methodology, source lists, and underlying data for any post we've published. Email with the post URL and the specific question.
Logo & brand assets
A small media kit (wordmark, color palette, founder headshot) will be available here once it's finalized. For now, reach out via email for any assets you need.
What we won't do
- Paid product placements in editorial
- "Native ads" disguised as posts
- Republishing other publications' work without permission and proper attribution
- Off-the-record commentary on companies we have a current commercial relationship with
